"Smack!"

When the basketball in Durant's hand suddenly disappeared, the world seemed to lose focus, and everything became a slow-motion shot, looking down in shock.

A certain string in his heart was broken.

“…… It's cousin! It's cousin Gu Yu!! My cousin broke the ball, a good chance to break fast!! ”

The shouts of the commentators, Durant couldn't hear them at all, and the fans' almost desperate wails couldn't enter Durant's ears.

He only knew one thing, and that was to score with Gu Yubi

He lost.

As a super scorer with extremely outstanding projection ability and even reached the historical level, whether it is Gu Yu or Durant, the preparation before preparing to shoot, and the action of protecting the ball and lifting the ball, are the top priorities of daily practice.

If you want to shoot the basketball, the premise is, of course, to protect the basketball, and the moment you are ready to shoot, the opposing defense master will definitely find a way to destroy it as soon as possible.

It's not like we fans play on the field, every time the defense jumps, we think about blocking. In the NBA-level arena, both sides are masters of masters, and the winners and losers are just a small action in a single thought.

As long as they can destroy the ball or interfere with the opponent's shot, the defender will do everything in his power to spend thousands of hours practicing, consolidating, studying each opponent's shooting habits, and achieving the goal as much as possible.

Where does the ball come up when he shoots? What is the speed at which the hand is raised? What is the angle? Where is the shot? Will the movements and details change in different situations?

All the minutiae, the defender will think clearly, think through, and fit all these things into the deepest part of the brain, right down to the spinal cord.

Only in this way, at the moment of the real confrontation, can you use the conditioned reflexes that your body has already remembered to respond defensively.

Kevin Durant, when he was attacking, when he was lifting that ball, of course he looked at Gu Yu's position.

If there is the slightest danger, he will not rush to the ball, anyway, there is still enough time for him to make other moves and shake up space.

But he got started.

This proves that in Durant's judgment, Gu Yu will never touch this ball no matter what.

However, Gu Yu not only touched it, but also broke it.

"Rub ...... Bang!!! ”

In the front court, Gu Yu almost took off at the time of the game, the full moon bent the bow and pulled the string, and with one hand, the ball made a beautiful arc and smashed it into the basket.

"The Thunder still want to fight to the death, serve the baseline ball quickly, and Evans shoots from a long distance......"

"Dang!"

“…… I don't hit it!! ”

Three quarters of the game, over.

Oklahoma City Thunder, trailing by 17 points.

It's not a score that can't be chased at all, there's still a quarter of play, and with 12 minutes to go, the Thunder really want to chase the points, and there's still a chance.

But anyone with a discerning eye knows that the opportunity left for the Thunder has been completely shattered when Durant was cut off just now.

was crushed by Gu Yu!

“nice-ork！”

On the Kings bench, Phil Jackson was also ignited by Gu Yu's steal and dunk, stood up and applauded, looked at Gu Yu with a smile and nodded, while encouraging the players: "Keep this rhythm, the beginning of the fourth quarter is very important, we have to arrange the rotation well, keep the point difference, and win!" ”

"Yes!!"

Led by Gu Yu, the bandits of the King team roared in unison, and the scene was as if the social brother was going to collect protection money, which made people want to retreat at a glance, hurry home and lock the door, and don't come out for a month.

"Kevin, that ball ...... just now"

"I made a mistake." Safrosa's voice sounded in his ears, and Durant didn't wait for his teammates to finish speaking, and then said: "I didn't protect the ball, my mistakes, it shouldn't be." ”

"There will always be, and mistakes are always inevitable." Kaloon Butler also looked at the autumn water, gasped and sat on the bench, wiping his sweat while saying: "There is still a chance in the fourth quarter, don't think about it, it's the right thing to quickly chase the score back." ”

“…… That's right. Brooks nodded, picked up the board, and began to lay out the tactics for the start of the fourth quarter.

But as soon as the cap of the marker pen in his hand was opened, Brooks's hand hung in the air, unable to write a word.

"What's wrong, Coach?" Lamb was innocent, didn't see what the problem was, and puzzled: "What tactics do you say, we will work hard!" ”

"Yes, Coach, you arrange, we execute, as long as you can win, you can do whatever you want me to do!" Young Adams was as determined as a bell.

"We've had a lot of big comebacks this season, and as long as we can get through the transition, the light will come. After all, we have the Big Three, and the starting lineup is invincible, that's what you told us, Coach. Robertson, who is also a newcomer, said, "Right? ”

"I ......" Brooks was tempted to say something, but when he looked around, he saw that the young players on the team were looking at him with wide eyes and ready to make a big move.

Looking at the players with a little more experience, as well as the old players, they have already wiped their sweat and drank drinks, and they don't seem to have much hope for the outcome of the game.

Brooks's cruel words, which had already reached his lips, were still unspoken.

"Say it, Coach." Evans's voice sounded, and Brooks looked back, only to see that the love player who was driving high and low in this game was looking at him with an indifferent expression, obviously having seen through something: "Tell them the tactical arrangement, let's try again." ”

“…… Good. Brooks nodded, glanced at the veteran players who couldn't tell through it gratefully, then took a deep breath, put the tactical board in front of the substitutes, and seriously talked about his tactical ideas.

That's it.

Brooks said this, the old players tacitly one by one, looked at each other a few times, nodded silently, put down the things in their hands, pretended to be very interested, and put forward some ideas of their own from time to time.

But they knew very well in their hearts that this game was like this.

With 82 regular season games, the home-court advantage in the playoffs that was finally won will be handed away in about half an hour.

That's amazing.

Durant's eyes swept to the Kings bench, glanced around, and finally landed on Gu Yu, who was giggling and bragging.

This opponent is really powerful......!

"Our advantage can be said to be very large."

At the same time, on the Kings bench, the players were excited to end the, and Phil Jackson also picked up the tactical board and said with a smile: "Don't look at our only 17-point advantage, it doesn't seem to be enough in front of the Thunder." But in reality, our advantage is already significant. As long as we don't mess around and win, we can basically say that we are in the bag. ”

"Coach, is that okay??" Wei Shao was a little unhappy when he heard it, and even he didn't know whether he was unhappy because he felt that Phil Jackson was too big, or because his former home team, the Thunder, was so despised and unhappy, but instinctively reminded: "The arrogant soldiers will be defeated, and if you get too carried away, you will suffer!" ”

"Eh, my mother-in-law, you can speak idioms?!" Gu Yu said happily on the side: "As a hind leg, your cultural heritage is not bad!" ”

"Get out of here!" Wei Shao scolded and made a gesture to bite.

"I won't open it, you hit me!" Gu Yu's iron arm blocked, and he responded happily.

"Hahaha......" The Kings players laughed out loud, and the tension in their hearts and the pride generated by the fact that the lead was not small were alleviated a lot.

"Hehe, my cousin and Russell are right." Phil Jackson was pleased with the relaxed atmosphere of preparation, smiling: "Tactically, we will still value the opponent, but strategically, we have to despise the opponent. The advantage in points is not big or small, but the advantage in rotation is very big. ”

…… Oh?

The players were stunned when they heard this, and no one thought about it from the perspective of rotation advantage.

"The third quarter was our toughest time, except for the start at the beginning, three minutes, Dream Chasing ate a fourth foul and went down. Four minutes later, Russell was in bad hands. Five minutes later, Andrew had a trick and went down. The only people who played on the field to the normal first ** change time were cousins and George. ”

Phil Jackson explained: "It's all the aftermath of the first quarter that we accidentally left behind, the foul problem, the feel problem, the rhythm problem, and we didn't solve it ourselves. In the second quarter, it was played more carefully and was not exposed thoroughly, but in the third quarter, it exploded again. ”

The few people who were named lowered their heads one after another, a little embarrassed.

"Hehe, it's okay, I'm not criticizing you by name. Wrong, it's the whole team that did something wrong, these details, we have to find a way to solve them before the next game, but that's all for later. Phil Jackson was keenly aware of the psychological changes of the players, and said with a smile: "But it was a blessing in disguise, which allowed Russell, Dream Chaser, and Andrew to get a very good rest time in the third quarter." ”

As soon as this sentence came out, Green, whose brain was spinning relatively quickly, understood a little.

"Coach, what do you mean ......"

"That's right, my idea is that we're just going to make a mistake, and since the rotation is already messed up, let's continue to mess up." Without waiting for Dream Green to finish speaking, Phil Jackson nodded and said: "At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Thunder will definitely have to come off the bench, as long as they still want to chase points, they have to maintain the physical fitness of the starter, fight for the last moment, and bet on the bench players." And if we just continue with the wrong rotation......"

Phil Jackson's eyes lit up, and he happened to meet Gu Yu's eyes.

"Hehe, that's equivalent to our four starters with a substitute and playing them all on the bench." Gu Yu smiled and said, "This is not winning, heaven is intolerable!" ”
